278 MEXICO. [Malvacece. 



remotis, bractea ad pedicelli basin filiformi elongata, involucello sub-8-phyllo caiycem 

 subduplo superante, foliolis lineari-subulatis calyci fere ad medium usque adhasren- 

 tibus, carpellis inermibus dorso pubescentibus bisulcatis. — An Malvacea, No. 1309, 

 Schlecht. in Linn. 6. p. 423, et 11. p. 370 ? 



Carpella quinque capsularia bivalvia monosperma dorso inter margines elevatos et carinam sulcata. Co- 

 lumna staminea inclusa, antheris stigmatibusque exsertis. 



1. Malvaviscus Acapulcensis. H. B. K. Nov. Gen. 5. p. 224 ; Schlecht. in Linn. 1 1 . p. 360, 



1. Hibiscus Tampicensis. Marie. PL Am. p. 7. t 5 ; Schlecht. in Linn. 11. p. 362. 



1. Pari ti urn Azanza. G. Don, Gen. Syst. Gard. 1. p. 485. 



The upper leaves are broadly ovate, quite entire or obscurely crenated, and perfectly glabrous on both sides. 

 Involucel 8-9-cIeft. 



Perhaps Paritium Pernambucense, G. Don, 1. c, does not differ specifically. To this belongs the gla- 

 brous specimen, which we noticed under Paritium tiliaceum, from Bonin, (supra, p. 259) but which we are 

 now inclined to suspect was misplaced. 



1. Anoda cristata. Schlecht. in Linn. 11. p. 2 10 Anoda triloba et A. Dilleniana. Cav. 



— Hab. Talisco. 

 The specimens belong to the form with the carpels very shortly mucronate. 



1. Sida rhombifolia. Linn.? 



2. S. carpinifolia. Linn. ? — Hab. Acapulco. 



The specimens are very imperfect : there are rather large linear-oblong acuminated glabrous stipules at 

 the base of the petioles. 



3. S. filiformis. Moric. ? 



This specimen also is very imperfect. 



4. S. paniculata. Linn. — Schlecht. in Linn. 11. p. 364. (vix Cav. Diss. 1. 1. 12. f. 5.) — 

 S. capiilaris. Hort. Ber. — Schlecht. in Linn. 6. p. 422. Cav. Let. \.f. 7. ? 



5. S. urens. Linn. 



The leaves are more acuminated than usual. 



. 1. Abutilon albidum ; foliis longe petiolatis cordato-ovatis acuminatis utrinque tomen- 

 tosis rugosis grosse crenatis, pedunculis axillaribus unifloris petiolo longioribus sub calyce 

 articulatis, laciniis calycinis ovatis paullum acuminatis, carpellis sub-10-truncatis mucro- 

 natis caiycem asquantibus hirsutis. — Sida albida. Willd. ? 



Folia acuminata, minime tamen caudato-acuminata, ut in planta Mexicana a Schlechtendalio in Linnsea 11. 

 p. 369 memorata. 



In many respects this agrees better with Sida ceratocarpa, H. & A., (which is also an Abutilon,) than 

 with any other species we know, but the carpels are very different.
